Snow disasters and earthquakes followed, the affected radiation area is vast, hundreds of people lost their homes and lost their lives, ushered in the New Year in mourning and sorrow, there is no joy and joy and no reunion that is looking forward to.

Unable to wait for the disaster relief arrangements of the government and the imperial court, people struggled to survive, riots of varying degrees occurred in many places, and the rioters robbed the local government and wealthy households.

And more people chose to flee north. Although they all knew that it was easier to survive if the weather was warm in the Nanban region, most people were reluctant to defect even if they were abandoned by the imperial court.

The good people can still take refuge in the north, but the criminals in the two counties of the union can't follow if they want to, and if they secretly leave without a certificate, if they are caught, they will directly die.

There is no way to enter the heavens and no way to the earth, and the surviving sinners can't help but feel like ashes, and they are only left with their thoughts about the difficulties.

As the days passed, the number of people who froze to death and starved to death every day increased, and countless people who were injured after the earthquake were not treated by doctors and died in pain.

There were originally one or two hundred households in Yandu Village with a population of more than 1,000, but there are only more than 100 people still alive today.

……

The Shen family, who had found a leeward and flat place for temporary residence, were preparing dinner.

It took the men a few days to painstakingly pull out the pots and pans from the ruins that were still usable, and to dig up the cellar and bring out the useful food that had been stored at that time, plus ordinary fruits that could be conjured into ordinary fruits for a long time.

So in the worry-free life, the grandchildren of the Shen family began the belated elder teaching.

followed Shen Shanping to read and write, followed Shen Shancheng to learn the art of war and strategy, and then followed Rujiu to practice martial arts, and every day was full of arrangements.

"It's time to eat." Hua raised his voice and called.

"Hey, it's finally time to eat!"

Shen couldn't wait to collect the momentum as scheduled, and the people who consumed a lot of money and were growing up on this day were hungry very quickly.

In addition, these days are combined with the consumption of Jiu'er's magical fruits, although the internal strength has been practiced, it can be consumed infinitely, it is really an exaggeration to say that I am hungry and scratch my heart and lungs.

"It's really a half-sized man eating a poor man." Shen Shansheng shook his head and scolded with a smile, this little son has always been grinding and chirping when he does business, and he must be the most active when he hears about eating.

Dinner is a thick porridge made of sweet potatoes and snow water, and a few fresh and delicious fruits, and everyone is very satisfied.

"Knock knock knock - knock knock."

Halfway through the meal, I heard the sound of earth-shattering gongs and drums coming from the far entrance of the village.

Everyone stopped their movements and listened attentively, and only got up when they were sure that it was the sound of gongs and drums.

"Let's go and have a look."

Shen Jiye led the family and followed behind him, all turning to the position at the entrance of the village and walking quickly.

Because of his own reasons and the secret of Rujiu's body, no one has ever had contact with the people in the village during this time. I didn't know the specific situation in Iwado Village, and I didn't know that the situation had reached this point until I saw it at this time.

One after another, people came from the place of refuge, not daring to delay for a moment, and as long as they were still panting and unable to move, their families were carried to the assembly point.

There were no thick clothes to shield from the wind, the cold shivered, and there were many other scars on the face and hands that were smashed and fell out in addition to frostbite, and everyone was floating under their feet, and their eyes were full of numbness and dead silence.

As soon as the Shen family, who were dressed in thick clothes and were not injured, appeared, they naturally attracted the attention of the audience, and there were not a few people who were resentful and jealous, but they didn't dare to make any moves.

"Have all the people arrived, and those who did not arrive will be punished as fugitives."

The leading official squinted his eyes, snorted coldly, and then read out the government newspaper -

"Kneel!"

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said:

In accordance with the will of the first emperor, I ascended the throne today and changed the year name to Xiyuan. The whole world celebrates the special amnesty of the world. Chin this. ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Emperor Xi died? The new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world?

After knocking on the buzzing in their heads, the people still couldn't come back to their senses, and they only felt that the news was too untrue.

"Today, adhering to the holy will, Deputy General Lu has already crossed out the Zhu pen that is within ten years of his sentence, and those who are within the time limit have hurriedly packed up their things, consciously signed and painted and returned to their hometowns as soon as possible after receiving the road guide."

"Yes, sir."

Many people hid their faces and wept, it is the best destination to be able to die in their hometown, but they are afraid that they will not be able to reach it, if there is no natural disaster and wait for the holy decree of amnesty, how good would it be?

No matter what, those who should go must go.

Even if it is difficult and difficult for them to go or not, it doesn't seem to make much difference, but as long as there is still a glimmer of life when they leave, it is worth fighting.

In less than half a minute, there was a long queue in front of the long table, signing and drawing to receive the guide.

When the road guide arrived, the Shen family was different from the sorrow of others, and followed Shen Jiye to quickly leave the crowd to pack up and prepare to set off immediately.

"Grandfather, let's go now, should we be in such a hurry?"

"Grandfather, where is our ancestral home?"

"Shut up, little bunnies, hurry up and pack up your things and leave, where is all this nonsense!"

There are not many things that need to be cleaned up, and there is no need to bother much, there are only two big burdens in total, and Shen Ruyi and Shen Ruer are done with each of them on their backs.

At nightfall, the Shen family left this place where they had lived for five years, but there was no nostalgia at all.

The ancestral home of the Shen family is Feiyang County, Yunyang City. It is separated by thousands of kilometers from Suiyuan City in the north and south, and the time spent on the way alone is a whole year, and it is still said that there is a carriage.

"Second uncle, we are in such a hurry to leave, is my grandfather worried about someone?"

"Just in case, don't worry, Xiao Jiu'er."

Is that so, Ru nodded noncommittally for a long time.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and this Emperor Xiyuan did not know how many sons he was the first emperor. A remote place like Suiyuan Mansion City could not escape the party struggle of the imperial court.

I don't know who the masters behind those people are, and why did Deputy General Lu limit the amnesty year to ten years, such an operation is purely a coincidence? Or is it premeditated...

Lowered his head and lowered his eyes to hide his flickering thoughts, as if he had secretly restrained his mind for a long time. Everything depends on whether they can leave Suiyuan Mansion City smoothly, or even leave Huixian.

More than a dozen people rushed away in a muffled voice, and the inexplicable sense of oppression made the youngest Shen Ru close his mouth and not dare to speak easily.

The clouds were thin at night, the full moon hung alone in the air, but the stars were gone.

The creaking sound of stepping on the snow faded away with the howling wind.

After two hours of non-stop travel, not far from Huixian, a large number of black-clothed people suddenly rushed out from all directions on the barren and populated sheep intestine path.

"Qiang—"

There was no superfluous word, and the people who came drew their swords and came directly to them.

Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Jiang's heart suddenly burst out, and he subconsciously held his daughter's hand tightly. This time, she wouldn't let what happened happen again, even if it was dead.

"Mother, don't be afraid."

Rujiu, who was holding a hand stiffly, thought that she was afraid and comforted softly, and it was this speaking kung fu that Shen Ruyi and the man in black had already met and started a scuffle.

The people who came were not like the group of black-clothed people that Rujiu met when he was in Suling, all of them were extraordinary.

After taking Fu Xueguo, they increased their internal strength for ten years, and practiced the exercises she taught, and several brothers fought with them for the time being.

Seeing it clearly, Rujiu no longer rushed up to help, it is rare to have such a group of suitable people as their whetstones, and it is easier to make a breakthrough after a good fight.

Shen Jiye and the others, who also saw clearly, did not make a move, but protected the women behind them and watched the changes.

Waiting for Shen Ruyi, they gradually turned into a decline due to their lack of experience, and they pulled out Qingfeng for a long time, "Dad, protect your grandmother and mother." ”

"Jiu'er!"

Jiang Shi, who had his hand removed, wanted to step forward quickly, but was grabbed by Shen Shancheng beside him, "Yueniang calm down, Jiu'er's martial arts are far better than mine, and I will definitely be fine, ah, don't worry." ”

"Shen Shancheng, you let go of me! I want to be with my nine sons! ”

"Take a good look, my daughter is fine there." Knowing his wife's heart disease, Shen Shancheng couldn't bear to murder her, so he could only tie her to his chest so that she could clearly see the situation in front of her.

Seeing Jiu'er like a wolf entering the flock, reaping the lives of people with unrivaled momentum, and the fierce look of the milk, Jiang quietly stopped struggling.

Yes, her Jiu'er is no longer the little one she was at the beginning. Now that she is so powerful, she will definitely not be easy to do.
